3 reasons why Atletico Madrid could win the UEFA Champions League this season

#2 Finest strikers across Spain

Super human

Diego Costa is a beast. His strength is second to none, and he positions himself pretty well during set-pieces and corners. He is always a threat in the air, and he probably is the only striker defenders are scared to face.

Diego to Atletico Madrid was a blessing in disguise for the Atletico fans and their squad. The Brazilian left Chelsea after reportedly having issues with former Chelsea manager Conte, who was also sacked at the end of the season.

However, Diego Costa performed at his best level for The Blues, scoring 58 goals, and assisting 24 times in 120 games across all competitions.

On the other hand, there is the sensational Antoine Griezmann. The World Cup winner is arguably the best striker in Spain, and he looks completely determined to win silverware with Atletico Madrid.

Griezmann is a striker with immense quality, and he really doesn't have a weak foot. He has scored some beautiful goals with his right foot, and is improving in every aspect under Diego Simeone.
